Sandy - Australian Shepherd and Terrier Dog for Adoption in Lebanon, Missouri

Meet Sandy!

Every little witch needs someone to look after her, and Sandy has certainly taken that job seriously!

This beautiful mama arrived at Claws & Paws alongside her three adorable daughters after being surrendered to Animal Control. When we were asked if we could take this little family in, we fortunately had the space and were more than happy to help!

While Sandy is still relatively new to us, she's already made a wonderful first impression. She's a happy, friendly, social girl with a sweet disposition and plenty of love to give!

She's also been a wonderful mama to her three little girls. Understandably, she can be a bit protective of her babies, but who could blame her? She's simply been doing her best to look after her little family.

We don't know much about Sandy's life before coming to us, and we're still getting to know her. As she settles in, we'll continue learning more about her personality, preferences, and what kind of home would suit her best.

What we do know is that Sandy deserves a chance to be more than just a mama. She's spent her time looking after her babies, and now we're hoping someone will give her the opportunity to be loved and cared for herself.

Sandy is ready to begin the next chapter of her life, and we're hoping it's one filled with love, comfort, and a family to call her own.

Could you be Sandy's happily ever after?
